Description

Filled with 505 full color pictures, this atlas provides a visual depiction of the common ophthalmic conditions and diseases found in all common domestic and exotic species. It's a powerful tool for observing the ophthalmic tissues in various stages of disease and is perfect for students and practitioners. Disease state chapters are arranged with one disease per page. If a disease changes in appearance significantly over time or during therapy, multiple illustrations are used. More complex diseases are presented in a two-page format. Summary text accompanies the photographs and provides jut enough clinical information to help the reader interpret the disease state. The corresponding text includes: History; Common clinical signs; Differential diagnosis; And recommended treatment. Use the atlas along or as a complement to Gelatt's other titles: "Veterinary Ophthalmology, 3E "and "Essentials of Veterinary Ophthalmology".
